Bought up in the countryside I have always had a passion for being outdoors. Though I don't live in an ideal location for mountaineering, I do try to get 3 or 4 trips in a year. Myself and a friend have strayed away from the UK norms of Munro/Wainwright etc bagging, and have started to climb all peaks in the UK with a prominence of 500m or more. We call 'em 'Daves', because everybody knows one!
